Hamilton, consider yourselves on notice. Clear Oct. 29th off your calendar, I have an entire day planned for you!
First, make your way to 5th Annual Zombie Walk & Food Drive!
Zombie’s aren’t normally very nice. But this is one day where even though they won’t think twice about getting a hold of your skull for a snack, they are going walk the extra mile to do something good for others…this time, just join them rather than try to beat them! ;-D
Then head to The Staircase for Fright Night Theatre’s screening of “Dead Genesis”, with a special presentation by the cast and crew! Stick around after that for The Devil’s Ball Fundraiser and Costume Party in support of The Staircase!
The Staircase is a grass roots, financially independant arts facility. I am a proud supporter of The Staircase, as it is huge part of my life and career. They have supported me in way no other venue in Hamilton has and I’m sure many, many more local artists, businesses and frequent visitors can relate or say the same thing!
